The Lost Story

"I fell hard for this novel starring Jeremy and Rafe, young men on a quest to locate friend Emilie’s sister. She is lost in a Narnia-like world, a hidden dimension within a West Virginia forest where they themselves had gone missing as teens. Who becomes transformed into a knight, a prince, or a princess matters less in Meg Shaffer’s luminous storytelling than the slow dawning of gentle queer love between Jeremy and Rafe. That narrative arc unfolds as beautifully as any I’ve encountered, painting a world of bravery and kindness as genuine as it is magical."
